I am (re)reading at the moment some of the novels from this series. It's an interesting alternative universe set in the late 30s and 40s. Some of you may know the PC game or even the one on the X Box (wich I don't, 'cause I do not have a console). There was also a card game, or RPG.
What do you think of it, do you like such alternate world themes, and especially the CS?
Personally I like the novels a lot, they are not the kind of really literature, but fun to read and the air battles are amazing. I am reading them on long train jouneys, so the gave a good atmosphere to it.
There are even some miniature models of the planes, is there someone collecting such things?

I have some of those, but they still wait to be painted. I hadn't that much time for this kind of thing during the last half year.
